ERIC CANTOR EXISTS.

"In January 2021, Schumer became Senate Majority Leader, and the first Jewish-American leader of either chamber of Congress."

This claim is summarily bullshit. Can someone please delete it? Thanks. BATTLECRUISER OPERATIONAL (talk) 19:21, 9 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Hello, BATTLECRUISER OPERATIONAL. The leader of the House is the Speaker of the House. The leader of the Senate is the Senate Majority Leader. Eric Cantor, though quite high in the leadership, never served in either of those roles. Steny Hoyer has the role that Eric Cantor once held, and nobody calls him the leader of the chamber. Cullen328 (talk) 20:44, 10 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

(Forehead slap) For some reason I thought he was a Senator. The one thing I had right is that nobody remembers Eric Cantor. Thus, I will reiterate: Eric Cantor exists. Now, I will bow out, never to return.. — Preceding unsigned comment added by BATTLECRUISER OPERATIONAL (talk • contribs) 05:55, 11 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]

Schumer should be listed as "the first Jewish-American leader of their caucus" as Senate Majority Leader is a higher distinction than House Majority Leader. HelloMyNameIs1233 (talk) 03:00, 4 January 2023 (UTC)[reply]

Section "Political positions > Marijuana"

Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer is pro cannabis banking legislation. If passed, the SAFE Banking Act would make it easier for financial institutions to offer services like bank accounts and small business loans to companies in the cannabis industry.^[1] 2A02:2455:460:DA00:E6C7:75E2:404C:2FE4 (talk) 17:28, 18 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]

The article already mentions his support for full legalization and two bills he introduced to accomplish that. The banking bill is a much milder reform and he is not even listed as a cosponsor for it. I wouldn't add it to the article at this point.--Jamesy0627144 (talk) 17:55, 18 July 2023 (UTC)[reply]
